The Disaster That Started It All Los Angeles. Saturday night. Rooftop party. I tried to impress everyone with an Old Fashioned. Result: sugar didn't dissolve, whiskey overpoured, bitters flooded the glass. My friends took one sip — and put their glasses down. That night I learned: Pretty lights can't save a bad drink. The Obsession I bought every "smart coaster" on the market. The ones that just blink LED lights at you. They only made my failures look colorful. A great drink doesn't come from guessing. It comes from absolute control — down to every gram, every drop. So I sold some stocks, gathered a team of sensor engineers and a real master bartender. In a garage, KAVAZ was born. A Laboratory in a Coaster We crammed a 0.1g precision scale into an elegant coaster. Our app is so smooth you'll forget it's working: • Pour in real time — see every gram as you pour • Get instant feedback — no more overpouring • Every drink, perfect — replicate bar quality at home No More "A Dash Of" At KAVAZ, there's no "maybe," "a splash," or "a jigger's worth." Only grams. Only real-time data. Now anyone can craft bar-quality cocktails right in their own kitchen. — — Using KAVAZ — A Few Tips for Perfect Pours • Place the coaster on a flat, hard surface (avoid tablecloths or soft mats) • Don't let the bottle touch the glass or mixer while pouring • Keep the coaster surface dry — accuracy depends on it • Using a paper or plastic cup? Add ice first so the coaster recognizes your cup The LED lights guide you in real time: Green = Ready or Complete Blue = Pouring / Idle Red = Connected / Progress Yellow = Cancelled / Resetting Purple = Paused (check the App) Orange (pulsing) = Stand-by — wake up with a gentle tap After 10 minutes of no use, the coaster rests. Wake it up by tapping it or using the App. — — Don't Be Fooled by Blinking Lights KAVAZ. Precision is the real flex.
